Parker: He stepped up, cleared his throat and sang.James: "Alright, buddy, sing up whenever you're ready."

OOC: I had said before that Cass was next. But it doesn't matter now.Parker: "I suppose that'd be me."
OOC: Nope, not any of mine. But it may be like another month or more in real time before the next class.James: He thought about it for a moment. "Sounds like you're also a tenor, my friend. Please go sit next to Hugo."
OOC: This has literally been going on for a week. Is there anybody who really wants to get their voice part now? Or can I let the bell ring and we can pick it up next time?

OOC: I literally just got home, give me 5 minutesOOC: I don't know if you're on Wings, but I have a question. I know I said we may or may not need a foreign language teacher, but you never really responded and I'm thinking of ideas but I don't want to make one if we don't need one. Do you think we need one?
OOC: I know, and I'm very sorry, but I'm worried I'll lose track of the list if we don't, because I'm listing people by name.James: He thought about it for a moment. "Sounds like you're also a tenor, my friend. Please go sit next to Hugo."

Hugo: He went and sat. "Hi. What's your name?"James: "Awesome. Go sit with the tenors, please."
OOC: Okay, now we can talk.
The thing about foreign languages is you can't learn more than one at once and expect to be fluent. So we'd all have to agree on one.
And then the other thing to consider is many of our students are probably bilingual. Jordan speaks English and Arabic, maybe even Hebrew too. Finny probably speaks English and Gaelic. Jo probably speaks English and Norse/Nordic. Haru probably speaks English and Japanese. Veronique speaks English and French. Havelock speaks English and Norse/Nordic.
So I don't know if a foreign language is the best thing. There's a bunch of thins you could do though. You could do Speech and/or Debate, Health, or we can break up science into multiple branches, like biology chemistry physics, or you could do Band/Orchestra, a technology/computer class, or have a different coach just for cheerleading. We need a soccer coach too, but I can see the gym teacher also coaching soccer more than cheerleading. We could even decide to do like football or basketball in the fall and do soccer in the spring.
Staff that don't have a class that we need are Nurse, Counselor, Librarian (though I'm thinking the Librarian can take over Homeroom) and the Secretary.
OOC: Go right aheadOOC: I would totally be willing to take on a staff role. Foreign Language does seem tricky. I'd vote for either Health or an elective.
That being said, I'd love to create a counselor, if you'd like me to?
OOC: Well I didn't mean a teacher that would teach multiple languages, but just teach one language, but you're right, I don't think we really need one. I might just make an elective I guess.OOC: Okay, now we can talk.

OOC: Whatever. I gave you a list, I'm sure there's more.OOC: Well I didn't mean a teacher that would teach multiple languages, but just teach one language, but you're right, I don't think we really need one. I might just make an elective I guess.
